Help: Dynamic Component not moving correctly with Move tool
-
Hello,
So I'm new to creating dynamic components and to this point I haven't had much trouble. With my newest component (attached) I am having an issue when I use the Move tool to try and move the component, it will move it too far in the direction I'm trying to move it.
For example, say I want to move it 6" along X axis and 6" along Y axis with the Move tool. Once I click where I'd like it to move, it will jump what seems to be an arbitrary amount past the 6",6" I desired. If I were to type the coordinates manually into the Component Attributes box, it will move perfectly.
I feel like I'm missing something simple, but I've been trying for an hour now to figure it out and haven't come up with anything. Any help is very much appreciated!!!
Update: I just realized that it is moving twice the distance that I specify with the move tool. If I try to move it 6" along X, it will move 12" along X. Hopefully this helps?!

When you position the subcomponents, don't include the containing block's X, Y, or Z attributes in the formulas (firepit!X + the rest of the position formula). If you do, everything displaces the amount that you move plus the additional distance.
Try the component in the attached file.
